As the Concacaf Women’s Qualifiers approach, Jamaica’s senior women’s football team, the Reggae Girlz, are setting their sights on a historic goal: securing a spot at the 2027 FIFA Women’s World Cup in Brazil. Head coach Hubert Busby has outlined a clear strategy to achieve this ambition, emphasizing the importance of team chemistry, player form, and a growth mindset in squad selection. The team, which has participated in the last two FIFA Women’s World Cups, is placed in Group B of the qualifiers, alongside Guyana, Nicaragua, Dominica, and Antigua and Barbuda. The path to the World Cup involves navigating the Concacaf Women’s Championship in November 2026, where the top six group winners will join automatic qualifiers the United States and Canada in an eight-team knockout tournament. The competition will feature five rounds, with quarter-final matchups determined by FIFA Women’s Rankings. Semi-finalists will secure automatic World Cup berths, while quarter-final losers will compete in a play-in for a chance at the Intercontinental Play-Off. Busby’s squad will blend experienced veterans from previous World Cups with emerging talents, including 12 senior debutants, 10 of whom are under 23. The coach highlighted the dual focus of the program: not only qualifying for the 2027 World Cup but also establishing Jamaica as one of Concacaf’s top three women’s teams and making their Olympic debut in 2028. Busby stressed the importance of sustained investment in women’s football, citing the revamped Women’s Premier League as a catalyst for nurturing talent and inspiring a new generation of players and supporters. The Reggae Girlz’s journey is more than a sporting endeavor; it’s a national mission to elevate Jamaica’s standing in global women’s football.
